Why do we need three threads?
Well, you want one for yourself, then one for each of your parents - otherwise your ma mite get upset?

Then again, how much vegenite does it take to change a light bulb?....

Why do we need two threads about how many marmite threads there are?

We, The Bandwidth Conservation Militia (BCM for short), have obtained blueprints of all Marmite storage facilities in the United Kingdom. Unless all senseless, pointless, stoopid and dumbass copycat threads are abandoned IMMEDIATELY, we will begin kidnapping full cartons of Marmite and holding them hostage until our demands are met!

We are serious! If you don't want to go back to eating your toast with marmalade or apple butter on it, the copycat threads MUST STOP NOW!

Dear BCM:

Would it be OK to start a thread about More Mites and would that be considered copycat?

Marmite should be spread thinly. One big thread is no good.

That'd be a threat with teeth.

One thing that disturbs me is that I ate some of that stuff at lunch ... now I'm thinking why would a food be called such a horrid name M-A-R-M-I-T-E.

A more pertinent question would be: Why do we HAVE three marmite threads?

I see no justification for it. Marmite barely deserves even one thread, in my opinion.

That's becaue you never ventured to try it LH.

Marmite is the name of a cooking pot used in France.

More than that surely.
Why do we need 7!/4 marmite threads?
Yes, I've just worked it out, it needs all the fingers and toes of 63 mudcatters to work count the number of ways of rearranging the letters.

You just can't keep up can you.I feel that there is some deep philosophical principal here somewhere. The Marmite Uncertainty Principle. Ever time you try to count it you alter it.

Just like life then, really.

Sorry, that should have been7!/2 as there is only 1 repeated letter. Are there another 63 catters prepared to take their socks off.

Go on, just for those who prefer the smell of cheese to marmite.

Going down.
As I thought I said earlier, MarmiteB has fallen off the table, now the 2 threads thread.
2 down 2 to go if all these fools would only stop posting rubbish

Blow the marmite - has anybody out there got an out of date jar of Bovril in their cupboard (pre July 2005)they want to part with? I can't stand the new stuff and neither can my body although I can tolerate proper Marmite in small amounts.

HELP!

I've always wanted a marmot - but they are community animals and even pairs get lonely, so three would be a nimimal number.

If marmite had never done anything but inspire Kevin to write his song about marmite and bovril, it would still be wonderful. Everybody should try to get a chance to hear Kevin sing it--especially in Dylanesque delivery. The song is completely specific and universal at the same time. And I disagree with the prediction it would not travel--with just one sentence of preface telling Americans what bovril and marmite are, it would be a smash in any US folk club.
